Ricky-dicky-doo-da is back! As bleak as this episode was (and it was seriously bleak), it was such a joy to see Rick and Michonne on our screens again. This ep had a lot going on and we hope you guys enjoy our breakdown.
Next up: We’ll most likely be doing a feedback episode in a couple days, so send in your thoughts!

It’s the classic 1985 zombie comedy, The Return of the Living Dead, the first movie where the zombies said “Braaaiiiinnnns!” And it’s also the return of Karen! I can’t believe Karen and I never covered this one before. It was a blast to talk it through with her and Lucy, and to just kind of let the conversation go wherever it wanted. Hope you enjoy :)

After this we’re getting ready for TWD: The Ones Who Live, and as always, we’d love to hear what you guys think. Next episode: Catching Up with Rick Grimes, plus our top 5 favorite things about Rick

Bonus ep! Thought you guys might like to check out Podcastica's first improv podcast, set (of course) in the zombie apocalypse, featuring Randy, Jenny, Robert, and special guests making their way through the walking-dead-infested landscape as best they can.

To hear more, go to podcastica.com/podcast/welcome-to-the-apocalypse or search for "Welcome to the Apocalypse" wherever you get your podcasts.

Welcome to the Apocalypse is an improvised podcast that pulls listeners into a post-apocalyptic world filled with scares, adventure, and dark humor.

Jenny, Randy, and Rob draw inspiration from apocalyptic TV shows and movies, as their characters navigate a deteriorating society, evade monsters, and encounter friends and foes that have been molded by the apocalypse.

In this episode, the group deals with their first zombie bite while encountering a yogurt-loving-man who may not be what he seems.

Man, these episodes take on a new flavor when you’ve spent a lot of time with the characters and know how things turn out. I won’t spoil the whole podcast, but I (Jason) always thought Daryl’s Cherokee Rose speech was cheesy, and now I just think it’s really sweet.

An iconic episode of The Walking Dead this week, maybe the first big “holy shit” moment, and a turning point for the series and definitely for Shane. What do you think? Was Shane right or wrong? Lucy and Jason are joined by Karen Shih to talk it through.

So great to see the first appearance of the Greene family, with Maggie galloping in and saving the day with her bat (!), and Hershel confidently using his veterinarian skillz to save poor little Carl. As capable and confident as they are, that’s how broken down Rick is. Poor dude.
